A new agreement between the University of Regina’s Paul J. Hill School of Business and Saskatchewan Polytechnic aims to make transitions between the institutions easier.

Under the new agreement, a year of business school at Saskatchewan Polytechnic is equal to taking a year of business school at the University.

“We’re going to have more students attracted to SaskPolytech, and then by virtue of that, more students attracted to the Paul J. Hill School of Business,” said Brian Schumacher, Associate Dean at the University of Regina.

The post-secondary institutions signed the new agreements to make it easier for students to finish their degrees.
